I like how we are able to put together a shopping cart order online through hobbyroom.ca, and then pick it up when it's all ready to go. It's definitely a convenient way of doing business.

Hey Kane, I have your xray setup board in case you were looking for it. You forgot it in my truck after Medicine Hat.

Well there are exceptions of course but through my travels to various hobby shops and my thousands of dollars spent, I see a "hobby shop mentality" per say that seems to include employees who find kindness unnecessary. Or maybe it is just the poor social skills and trouble with interpersonal interaction that seems so evident in this hobby that makes it seem that way. Just my own opinion is all.
